Roadmap & Feature Requests

What we're building next for Lamco RDP Server

Version 1.2.0 - Production Ready

Lamco RDP Server v1.2.0 is now available. The core remote desktop functionality is production-ready and shipping:

Wayland screen capture
H.264 (AVC420 + AVC444)
Hardware acceleration
Keyboard & mouse input
Clipboard sync
TLS 1.3 encryption
Adaptive FPS (5-60)
Predictive cursor
Multi-compositor support

Planned Features

Audio Playback (RDPSND)

IN DEVELOPMENT

Stream system audio from your Linux desktop to the RDP client. Watch videos, listen to music, and hear notification sounds remotely.

Protocol: RDPSND
Format: PCM, AAC
Backend: PipeWire
Latency: <100ms

Microphone Input

PLANNED

Send audio from your client microphone to the Linux desktop. Enable video calls, voice chat, and voice input from remote sessions.

Why it matters: Work-from-home scenarios often require video calls. Currently, you'd need to join calls from the local machine, not the remote desktop.

Multi-Monitor Improvements

IN PROGRESS

Enhanced multi-monitor support with dynamic layout changes. Basic multi-monitor works now, but we're improving dynamic add/remove, per-monitor resolution control, and better DPI scaling.

Drive Redirection (RDPDR)

PLANNED

Access files on your local client from the remote Linux desktop. Transfer files between local and remote without separate tools. Open local files directly in remote applications.

Your Input Matters

We prioritize features based on user feedback. Tell us what matters to you.

How to Request Features

Email: office@lamco.io

Subject: "Feature Request: [feature name]"

Tell us:

  • What feature you need
  • Your use case (how you'd use it)
  • How important it is to your workflow
  • Whether you'd pay for it (helps us prioritize)

GitHub: When the public repository launches, you can submit and vote on feature requests via GitHub Issues.

What We're NOT Building

To set expectations, here are features outside our scope:

X11 Support

Lamco RDP Server is Wayland-native by design. We won't add X11 capture—that's what xrdp does well. If you run X11, use xrdp.

Windows/macOS Server

Lamco RDP Server is a Linux product. Windows and macOS have built-in RDP servers or established alternatives.

Enterprise VDI Management

We're building a remote desktop server, not a VDI orchestration platform. If you need central management of hundreds of virtual desktops, use enterprise VDI solutions.

Proprietary Protocol

We use standard RDP because any RDP client can connect. We won't switch to a proprietary protocol that requires a special client.

Release Philosophy

Stability Over Features

We won't rush half-baked features. Every release should be more stable than the last.

Semantic Versioning

Major (1.x → 2.0): Breaking changes
Minor (1.0 → 1.1): New features
Patch (1.0.0 → 1.0.1): Bug fixes

Priority Support

Commercial licensees receive priority email support with 48-hour response time.
